    Keys to the game.
    1. Scrubola needs to keep from stinking up the whole joint like he did in games 1 and 2.
    2. Somebody needs to make outside shots off of a TMac double team.
    3. Rebound the basketball especially on the defensive end.

    If we do all three, then we might have an outside shot of keeping the game close for three quarters.

    Does it bother anyone other than me that the initials of all their children are KK? I wonder what their middle names are?

    Kyle "Kevin" Korver?
    Kaleb "Knight" Korver?
    Klayton "Keith" Korver?
    Kirk "Kristian" Korver?

    It just bugs.. .spell their names correctly... with a C!! Caleb and Clayton.

    to win .. I hope we'll get a miracle.

    Let's see if T-Mac is mentally strong enough to forget the critics and guide the Rockets to a win.

    Go Rockets!

    But we finally gotta bring some help for him, if not than we will be done.

    I mean we as I said earlied gotta knock down shots. No more 17-pts quaters for us.

    Attack the rim and make those outside shots. It would be good and key to give Tracy 5 or so minutes rest before the 4th, but first of all others have to step up.

    I so hate the flopping Jazz. I dont like comparing the old clutch city squad to this band of Rockets, because their is no comparison. The situation, however, is similar. Clutch City was born when the Rockets rose from despair. Once again, these Rockets can rise up, prove the doubters wrong and show everyone just who they are. Over the past few playoff years, there have been mentions of Clutch City Part 2 or the return of Clutch City. Well, here is our first real opportunity to revive Clutch City. The question is, will these Rockets rise to the challenge? Undermanned, outgunned and in an extremely hostile environment for the next 2 games, they have their work cut out for them.

    I love the Rockets and Im rooting for them to summon that team spirit and cohesiveness that made up their improbable 22 game win streak. If they can play like that again, we can beat anyone, anywhere.

    Just do it.

    The Rockets will loose again if they don't make their freethrows There is a chance that the Jazz may be over confident and we might find an opening or two!:p
